Wednesday, October 21, 2026
2:00 PM

Every year, an estimated 395 million people are injured at work. Rarely because an alarm failed, usually because of what happened in the moments after. In 45 minutes, leading process safety expert Trish Kerin shows how to close the gap between an alarm and a response. Because that is where a safer workplace begins, and where technology starts saving lives.
